Aims and Background Over the last 17 years, 119 adult acute myeloid leukemia patients have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at our Center. Study Design Seventy patients in first complete remission received hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (28 allogeneic and 42 autologous HSCT) as late intensification after conventional chemotherapy; 38 patients received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in a more advanced phase. A reference group was built up by collecting 40 acute myeloid leukemia patients who received high-dose cytosine arabinoside as late intensification and whose complete remission lasted more than 10 months. Results Results of the study led to conclude that an earlier timing of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can be recommended in order to treat patients who would otherwise suffer an early relapse. Conclusions The outcome of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients not in first complete remission supports the possibility of achieving good quality second complete remissions and suggests that autografting may be a life-saving strategy in selected acute myeloid leukemia patients with advanced disease.

AbstractLow intake of magnesium has been associated with the occurrence of lymphomas and decreased magnesium levels suppress the cytotoxic function of T cells and natural killer cells in patients with “X-linked immunodeficiency with magnesium defect, Epstein-Barr virus infection, and neoplasia” (XMEN) syndrome. These cell types are also important mediators of immune-mediated effects after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Here, we show that high posttransplant magnesium levels independently associate with a lower incidence of relapse, a higher risk of acute graft-versus-host disease, and a higher non-relapse mortality in 368 patients with acute myeloid leukemia from our center. Magnesium serum levels might impact on donor-cell-mediated immune responses in acute myeloid leukemia.
